Lego: Space - The Comic

[DJ Force]

Say, you don´t happen to have one of those white suits of President Weiss for trade, do you? I SO need that torso for a project I´m working on.

Hehe, "I'll resist all obvious jokes"

As always I'll note that it is good to see Ice Babe.

Carter and robot has been my favourite so far now, I hope to see him again, has he made any appearances since that early strip?

"Left Clavicle"

And also, not wanting to sound teste testy here (wow that strip affected more than I thought!) but is there going to be a special Christmas comic?

Batbrick Away!

EDIT: Research now suggests that "clavicle" is part of the collar bone

DJ Force, I don't have an extra white suit torso, but you can probably get one for pennies on Bricklink.

Carter and Robot appeared in the crowd at the Indy premiere. They were due to be in another story I didn't have time to post before the Advent calendar started, though. And I have another planned for them.

Yes, the clavicle is the collar bone. The funny part is that I was actually thinking of the scapula when I wrote the comic.

There's not an actual Christmas comic planned, although sorta.

One purpose of this storyline is to spend some time with the minor characters and provide profiles that convey some backstory I haven't been able to get to otherwise.

I'm liking the new Pirates line a lot. I want that ship and the Soldier's Fort a lot, but I've reigned myself in and just bought the three smallest sets. Although I did grab a few of the minifigs from the bigger sets off Bricklink. As for that comic, I meant it to show how human nature hasn't changed. But the language deterioration idea came off more strongly, I think. Which is fine. I hadn't planned it and only realized it as soon as I typed it.

Neat, I'll have to go back and look now.

Very nice, that's actually a clever little idea. I'm guessing you might also do one for New Years or something?

I'm still waiting for them to come out here, but being Tasmania this might take a long while. I also will restrain from the larger sets though and get the smaller ones.

Oh, and either way your comic came out fine, I got both vibes from it but the cynic in me saw it getting worse

Anyway, Red who? Nice to see such a nonappearing character to appear, I hope to see her in future stories. Was this made as your little wake up call to actually put her in something? Though mind you, I could've sworn she was in the background of training flashback of Shootin in the Solar Breeze part 3.

Batbrick Away!

I may or may not do a New Year's comic. I was serious when I had Colin McNewsbreaker say I was taking a break between Dec. 24 and Jan. 3. I have a lot of ideas I'm anxious to shoot and post, but could use a small vacation from the fun.

Can you get the new Pirates in Tasmania them from LEGO S@H? I imagine the shipping ain't pretty. I'm now looking forward to Rock Raiders II... er... Power Drillers showing up. I'm iffy about them, but there are two mid-size sets which look good. I love the rock monsters, which remind me of creatures in something else but I'm not sure what. (And no, I don't mean the rock monsters in Rock Raiders.)

Good eye. Red appeared so far in the training flashback (which I've shown like, three times), in the 100th comic as a faux Stormtrooper, and as one of Schwartz's guards in the possible future. Her appearance in the Advent calendar (as well as a few others) are a way to remind myself to use them, and to tell readers that these are characters they should look for. Red has a BIG role in something I have planned way down the line, but that could be six months to a year away, who knows? I do have plans to use her more in the near future, though.

I never said it before, but your comics look great!

I was not sure who the actor was, yesterday I watched the movie "The one that got away" about Chris Ryan. He is the same actor, isn't he?

Anyway, is Spyrius going to be in one of your comics?

Keep up the good working!

Thanks for that reply KDog, hope you enjoy your small vacation when it comes round! The shipping to Tas is awful yes, but I'll just wait for them to arrive, I'm in no hurry. I love the rock monsters too, they remind me of that Sesame Street trash can puppet, Groucho I think.

I knew it! I'll have to look out for her next time i re-read these things. Interesting that yuo have a large role for her too.

anyway great new comics. I always like McGann, nice obscure Who reference. Of course the real meat here is the UFO guy, I really hope to see his plot come to fruition soon. Is he your main plot point still? Anyway I laughed at the "Meet any fine ladys doing that?" because let's admit it, we always wondered if that was the reason.

Awesome!

I just wanted to let you know I'm a big fan :D

Laughing my megablocks off! How cool is that one?

[Batbrick]

I had forgotten about these two! Bruce as always (I went back and read their bit) is hilariously over possessive. The real shocker I only just got when rereading it. I thought that you had mixed up the figures but then I realised that Cheryl was just as crazy and paranoid as Bruce is!

Well, that was unexpected.

As always, all the compliments are appreciated!

Batbrick, yup, that was my intent. Cheryl and Bruce have a lot in common. :-)

I remember that when I first showed those two making out, people thought they were a gay couple. I think many of us just tend to see the plain Space astronauts as male.

What's with this guy?

Anyhow, good as always.

Hey KDog!

Great comic as always!

It sucks about your computer...my little brother's Dell did that too, so he took it to the tech department guys at the local community college. Works like a charm now. The only other things I could suggest is remove the battery and put it back again, use a system backup/restore function to set your computer back to earlier settings, or (my personal favorite) smack it!

If none of that works, you might have to call Dell to get replacement parts or maybe even a new computer (in a worst case scenario)...

Looking forward to the next comic!

Cheers!

I must confess I also thought that

Anyway, sorry for being away recently. Love the new strips. Awesome to see G-Bot here, though my brain mustn't be working early this morning because I'm clueless to the joke, yet it feels vaguely familiar...

Awesome to see Coldwell too, was he introduced in Blank Attack? I recall his hilarious Xenu dream but can't remember if that was before or after the whole dragon affair. Loved the "down at the store buyin' a pepsi" comment though.

Of course Ronald is a great character. I admit to not liking at first but now he has grown on me immensely. Of course his odd dialog always makes for funny situations like pretending to be his brother here. took a while for me to realise that Mikey was replying from in the calender though!

Great stuff all round, always looking forward to the next ones!

Before I forget.......

I don´t get the letters in G-Bot and S-Bot... I´m stupid. Or just not native language english speaking. Please explain

[KDog]

I don't think anyone gets it. Instead of explaining it now, I'll address it in a later comic, because I think I'll get the most humor out of it that way. :) All I can say is, when you realize it, you're going to go, "Ahh, I see." And hopefully laugh.
